Description

For more than a dozen years, the Ford Explorer has been the best-selling SUV in America.In fact, it's the sixth best-selling vehicle.It's become the standard-issue suburban family hauler.Though capable as a tow vehicle and able to venture off the highway, most Explorers spend their lives shuttling people, collecting groceries and performing the duties station wagons performed when Baby Boomers were growing up.The Explorer answers this call admirably and comfortably, and that's a big part of the reason it's so popular. The Explorer is roomy and comfortable.It can seat seven people when equipped with the optional third-row seat, which folds flat into the cargo floor when not needed.On the other hand, Eddie Bauer and Limited models are luxurious vehicles with available second-row sport bucket seating. Buyers can choose between V6 and V8 engines, but the V6 provides plenty of power.The V8 isn't needed unless you're pulling trailers or live in the Rocky Mountain states where the air is thin.Part of the reason for this is a superb five-speed automatic transmission.Explorer's wide track and long wheelbase give it a solid, stable stance, while its independent rear suspension (an unusual feature in a mid-to-large-size SUV) gives it a smoother ride and better handling than SUVs with traditional live rear axles.
